Two spins and lots of movement in the standings!

Turn 26 Summary

McConchie saves his last wear for later and rounds Surtees at 80. Harley also saves the last wear and is able to clear Surtees on the line at 80.

Moratto goes for broke by diving into the Surtees 60 at 100. He burns his last wear and tosses in the red chip on the chance (modified 9). He needed every bit of that skill to avoid the tire barrier but does spin out.

MacDonald is out of Graham Hill and onto the Surtees line at 80.

Hoyt has the initiative at 100. He clips a tire on the line and has the inside in front of Surtees. Marshall eases his way around Graham Hill at 60.

Turn 27 Summary

Schultz is around Hawthorns at 120 with only three more corners to victory. McConchie pulls up on the Hawthorns line at 120.

Harley, with initiative, gives his engine a nudge with 2s (modified 8) and hits 140. Moratto comes out of his spin at 60.

Hoyt is through Surtees at 60, squats on the line, and just happens to pick up a bumper.

Bernhardt sheds two wear on the inside rail at 100 to pull even with the #42. MacDonald finds his line blocked at 100 and runs outside with his big chip (modified 3).

Marshall saves his last wear for later and runs the Surtees line at 80. Moore dives to the inside at 80 for a wear and position.

That was a good race, lots of action from the get go on one of those tracks that always seems to be tempting you to spend another wear...
